Abstract
The welding operator may encounter trouble in starting the arc or in having the arc extinguish itself too readily. Those causes of trouble which are attributable to the welding generator are analyzed and explained in terms of generator design. Development of means for eliminating the generator characteristics causing these troubles, is outlined and the results obtained are shown by oscillographic records. Other benefits accruing from this improvement are mentioned.
